Prospective graduate applicants to management programs take the GMAT®. Admissions panels use GMAT scores to supplement undergraduate records and other qualifications for graduate study. The scores provide common measures for comparing qualifications of applicants and aid in evaluating grades and recommendations.
According to the Graduate Management Admissions Council, the GMAT® measures basic verbal, mathematical, and analytical writing skills that have been developed over a long period of time through education and work. Typically, your GMAT® score will be one factor used to determine your qualification for admission to a graduate-level management program.

He has edited course curriculum for KU Continuing Education and served as editor of the Journal of Interdisciplinary Research. He scored 700 on the GMAT.
Our multi-session review course is designed to help you increase your score by providing instruction over the course of several weeks.
The GMAT® Review Course will teach strategies to help you solve difficult quantitative comparison questions; identify common analogy relationships; recognize keywords in reading comprehension passages; and break complex geometry problems into small, easy-to-answer pieces.
The review course includes homework activities designed to give the course students opportunities to supplement their in-class instruction.
